Dash handed divorce papers

Rachel Roy filed a divorce suit in New York's Manhattan Supreme Court earlier this month (Mar09), signalling the end of her marriage to the Roc-A-Fella Records co-founder, who she married in Mexico in January 2005.

And it seems Roy, who Dash helped launch her own women's fashion line, is aware of the hip-hop executive's financial woes as the divorce is for "nonmonetary relief" and is expected to be resolved by February (10), according to an electronic record of the case obtained by the New York Daily News.

The publication reports that Dash is facing foreclosure on his two Tribeca, New York properties and owes $2 million (£1.4 million) in state taxes.

A judge also ordered Manhattan officials to seize his SUV last year (08) after he failed to make his monthly payments.

And Dash's troubles don't end there - he is also being sued by various law firms and landlords over allegedly unpaid bills.
